What reading level is An Introduction to English Rural History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As the allowance varied with the size of the family, there was no inducement to thrift or restraint : hence, by means of "improvident marriages," the pauper class rapidly, increased. Poaching and stealing also became prevalent in spite of the. harsh laws.
Concerning the position of tlie. landless labourer just before Waterloo, Mr. Prothero writes: "Contemporary writers who comment on the increasing degradation of the labouring classes t;oo often treat as its causes changes which were xeally its... consequences. They note the increase of drunkenness, but forget that the occupation of the labourers' idle moments was gone ; they attack the mis- chievous practice of giving children tea, but forget, that milk was no longer procurable ; they- condemn the rising generation as incapable for farm labour, but forget that the parents no longer occupied land on which their children could learn to work ; they dejdore the helplessness of the modern wives of cottagers who had become dependent on the village baker, but forget that they were now obliged to buy flour, and had lost their free fuel ; they denounce their improvident marriages, but forget that the motive of thrift was removed." In one pariah, three-quartets of the inhabitants, were fceceiving relief.
